Superintendent’s Update

(continued from front page)

The last issue of this newsmagazine in March was a deep dive into our strategic plan, Destination 2026, and how we are taking action each day. The 2023 State of the Schools video series, hosted by seniors Luke and Piper, shares from a student perspective what makes the Mariemont Experience distinct. In the coming school year, I am looking forward to telling more stories of what makes our offerings and opportunities ‘Distinctly Mariemont.’

One of the ways we are Distinctly Mariemont is through our continued academic success. Our district ranked first in Hamilton County, first in the region and fourth in the state in overall academic achievement. We also topped the county and region and ranked third in the state for early literacy achievement and were the only school district in the region that had every one of our schools scoring in the top 10 for academic achievement. Not only that but our staff also top the charts! Mr. Brian Sugerman was named the Most Outstanding Educator in Experiential Education K-12 by the National Society of Experiential Education.

On May 28, we gathered at Kusel Stadium to say one final goodbye to the Class of 2023. I am so proud of each and every one of our graduates. They are incredible representatives of the Mariemont Experience and like our alumni on pages 6-7, I have no doubt they will continue to be deep thinkers, active citizens and creative problem solvers in their future endeavors.

It was an incredible school year in the Mariemont City School District and I want to thank each and every student, staff member, family and community resident who played a role in our success. None of this is possible without your commitment and support of a Distinctly Mariemont education and experience for our students.

As we head into summer break, I hope you each have a safe, happy, and healthy summer – I will see you all next school year!
